Zavada Heads to Arizona

MOBILE, Ala. (May 12) - Prior to tonight's contest between the Mobile BayBears and
Montgomery Biscuits at Hank Aaron Stadium, the following roster move has been made
by the Arizona Diamondbacks and the BayBears. LHP Clay Zavada has been promoted to
the Diamondbacks where he's expected to work out of the bullpen in tonight's
ballgame against the Cincinnati Reds at Chase Field. Zavada is a member of the
D-backs' 40-man roster and was 1-0 with a 2.51 ERA in 9 relief appearances. In 14.1
innings, he had allowed 8 hits with 4 runs and 17 strikeouts. Zavada is the 96th
BayBear to make the major leagues and the 4th to go straight from Mobile to Arizona
since the BayBears became a Diamondback affiliate, joining Mark Reynolds, Justin
Upton and Bryan Augenstein. There is no corresponding move at the moment. The
BayBears have 22 active players on their roster...
